What is the message in the Bible about the queen of Sheba?

1 Rois 10:1 (NEG79)

1 La reine de Séba apprit la renommée que possédait Salomon, à la gloire de l'Eternel, et elle vint pour l'éprouver par des énigmes.

The Bible gladly reports that people come out of the world to the light of God. That is the theme of this passage (see for this theme also 1 Kings 4:34 and 1 Kings 10:24; Isaiah 60:1–22 and Psalm 72:1–20). In the New Testament in Matthew 2:1–23 we find the story about the wise men who come to the Light to worship. Revelation 21:24 talks about kings bringing their glory into God’s city. This is the message of this text, and it is the joy of God’s heart.
